(ANSA) - ROME, DEC 21 - Denmark has decided to exhume to cremate about 4 of the 15 million mink that were killed because they are carriers of a variant of the coronavirus. It brings the BBC.


    The procedure will not take place before May, when there will no longer be any risk of contagion. The minks in question were buried in a military area in the west of the country and some of their carcasses re-emerged due to the nitrogen and phosphorus produced by their decomposition creating a risk of air contamination. Among other things in the vicinity there are a swimming lake and a source of drinking water.
